Hey there friends, I'm excited to let you all know that Accuquilt is going to give away a Go! Baby fabric cutter along with three dies and a cutting mat, to one of my readers.

To enter, leave one comment on this blog post (one entry per person, please). Let me know something you'd like to make using the Go! Baby, if you win, ok? I will choose the winner on Monday, May 25 (oops, I meant July 25! The summer has gone by so fast!). Make sure I have a way to contact you; if you're a no-reply blogger, include your email address in your comment. I will email the winner

Here's a link to my zigzag mug rug tutorial, made with my Go! baby triangle die, and if you're new here, I wanted to let you know I have lots of other free tutorials as well, for quilting as well as clothing sewing projects and techniques.

I want to make a baby quilt with appliqued birds, critters & flowers. You might guess my favorite dies for the Go baby! You mean the drawing is July 25 right? Oh how I wish it was only May so I'd have more time to get things done before the holidays!

Don't include me. Already have a go but wanted to tell you I made three chicken potholders from your cute tutorial for my neighbor who's moving and having to give away her chickens. They turned out so adorable. Will have to post a. Picture on fb! Good luck to someone. Just love that accuquilt gives these to give away

I'm jumping on board for Drunkard's Path as well...but then there is that great diamond...and what about circles-would love to try that one as well...hmmm..what was the question again! Thanks for a great giveaway.

So many things I would love to make that would be quicker and/or easier with the Go! I have a zig-zag quilt on my 'want to do' list, as well as a Grandmother's Flower garden and cutting strips would be wonderful with this. Thanks for the chance to win one.

Thanks for doing a giveaway! I'm not sure what type of quilt I would like to make with it, but I know I'd come up with something! I like making baby quilts because they generally don't take me as long and I'd like to have a stock of them made since I'm at the age when everyone I know is having babies!

Before reading your post today, I was shopping around for GO! Baby Fabric Cutter. The first thing I would make is initial and name baby blanket using the GO! Baby Fabric Cutter. I would also use it to help my mother-in-law finish the diversity is welcomed rainbow & butterflies panels she is making for her church. I hope I win; I've never won anything! - Peace, Shawn Marie Shepard-Mate (melodicmockingbirddesigns@hotmail.com)

If I won, I'd take this baby (heh) to school and let my students go to town. Maybe we'd make a classroom baby quilt (tied, probably - natch) to donate to the children's shelter. Or something equally as cool.

Am sew happy I found your blog:) I see I have found a like-minded sewer! Happily switching between quilting and non-quilting projects. That being said - A GO Baby would be ideal for trying some of those tricky curves I sew love - am especially captivated by the idea of a quilt featuring applique circles.

It's a great day when I see a Go giveaway on a blog that I follow! I'm perpetually hopeful that Mr Random Generator (or whichever program) will put me out of my misery and select me for this totally awesome tool. I think I would first start with some applique projects that I have going on. I'm working on some framed works that would benefit from some lovely embellishments. I'm also hopeful that the Go will help push me into full fledged quilting. Thanks a bunch!

Your zig zag coaster is fabulous, and I think I'd start with something similar if I had a Go Baby. Also, I'm intrigued by the strip cutter. Does it make cutting bias strips easy? I can imagine the fun I would have with the Go.

i would definitely take the plunge and do a quilt with curves...drunkards path...or apple core...probably some variation of the d. path! im so put off by the curved sewing and cutting...with accuquilt, id be over 1/2 my anxiety!

I would love to make any applique project (never done one yet as am new to quilting). I would probably start with a small throw pillow or something, but I'm sure it would quickly expand into larger projects. Thank you for the opportunity!

I would give it to my best quilting friend Carla because she is always borrowing my Go! and then we could work twice as fast :) We make quilts for Binky Patrol and give them to kids in crisis--CPS, hospital, NICU, anywhere a kid needs a hug, so we make a lot of quilts and need to work quickly. Thanks for the chance to win! And Thanks Accuquilt!

Oh what would I make with a GO! - where do I start? I like the tumbler quilts that I have seen lately on blogs so that would be on the list, then maybe a hexagon quilt, a dresden plate, and many more with the squares and triangles it will make soo easy to cut. Thank you. C

I'd use the drunkard's path die to play with various layouts of the block. I have a couple of examples in books I own and would love to try a number of different ones in the same fabrics. So far, I haven't had the guts to do all that curved cutting myself!

WOW !! What a great giveaway. I've heard from owner's of the GO! that they love their machines. I'd make my first Drunkard's Path quilt if I win. Thank you and AccuQuilt for this giveaway and a chance to win.

I would make a tumbler quilt. I love this pattern but the cutting with a rotary cutter would take forever. I love the daisy die also. I have tried to win one of these everywhere. I really would love to win this. craftykate1@gmail.com

I would like to make an I spy match game quilt with a 1/2 square triangle die.. where you cut a 4 inch square in half and spread the 1/2's throughout the quilt using cute character fabrics all different kinds.. then the grandkids someday can play match game with it.

What would I use a Go! for? To cut the sashing for my Civil War Love Letters and Mod Mosaic quilts that I want to do. To help me make a baby quilt for the coworker whose baby (gender unknown) is due in October...and get it done before I go out for a few weeks on a field problem in October. To make my life super easier!

I love making pixel quilts of old video games from the 80s. The 2" square die would be so helpful in making these! I am almost finished with my Dig Dug quilt and next up is either Donkey Kong, Burger Time, or Duck Hunter.

Ooh sure glad I'm playing catchup today on my emails or I'd be very mad at myself had I missed this.

I think the very first thing I'd make is a baby quilt. My 2nd grandchild is arriving around Sept 2nd and I need to make something for him. In fact, his older sister will be turning 4 yrs old on Aug 29 and I never made her a quilt when she was born because I wasn't doing quilting back then but all machine embroidery instead.

Hi Just came across your blog! I love it and now I am a follower. I love the GO!Baby there is so much I would love to make with it. I would really like to make a Halloween advent calender and I would do that with these three dies GO! Holiday AccesoriesGo!PumpkinsGo!Birds

Hi thank you for a chance to win. If I had GO! using the embroideries designs that work with the GO! i would use the two together for quilts. The three dies I like areGo! holiday accessoriesGo!8 point stars Go!snowflakes

I'd give the Go Baby Go to my friend, who quilts for our group, World of Charity Stitching. We make lap quilts for seniors in a nursing home and for children in a domestic violence shelter.Thanks,Peggypeggy_verdongibbs@att.net http://keepmeinstitches-peggy.blogspot.com

If I had a Go! Baby, I would finish a table runner that I started in a fall sewing group last year. Someone teaching the class thought that cutting all the parts would go much faster than it did, and I have about three quarters of what I need as far as the applique pieces go. Did I mention that they are all roundy pieces, petals, leaves and such? NO fun to cut them all out by hand!

I've love to make a quilt with the drunkards path die. Cutting is my least favorite part so I tend to stick to straight cuts with my rotary cutter lol. Thus why I'd love to win one of these...not quite in my budget yet. Thanks for the chance :)
